There were clear emotions on the blurry face of 'Xi He'.
It stared at Li Pingan and said calmly: "You are imitating me."
Li Ping'an's heart moved slightly.
Does she really have the ability to think?
Li Ping'an casually took out the spirit-slaying flag, faced 'Xihe' face to face across a large shield, and said slowly:
"I am reminding fellow Taoist that the ancient times have passed away, everything has been renewed, and the way of heaven is now nearly perfect. Why not let this old way of heaven pass away peacefully?"
‘Xihe’ didn’t answer.
The outline of her figure seemed to become more solid, and her facial features gradually became clearer.
'Xihe' said: "What's new may not be right, and what's old may not be wrong."
"Look back, fellow Taoist," Li Ping'an said calmly, "Mo Linyuan's body has become such a strange appearance, with at least dozens of ancient masters' consciousnesses mixed in it. If I guessed correctly, the Inner Heaven Dao itself
Having developed an independent consciousness, the way of heaven is supposed to be sexless and spiritless. In such a situation, do you still think you are right?"
‘Xihe’ tilted his head and thought.
She seemed to frown, and then spoke again:
"The living beings are ignorant and should be guided. The living beings who do evil should be punished. The existence of heaven is to protect the heaven and the earth. The existence of living beings has nothing to do with the heaven and the earth."
Li Ping'an said: "The way of heaven depends on living beings, so why should we turn our backs on living beings?"
'Xihe' said: "The way of heaven was originally born from the will of heaven and earth, how could it be abandoned?"
Li Ping'an took a step forward, his eyes a little sharper: "Pangu opened the sky to create a place for all spirits!"
"That's just wishful thinking of creatures."
‘Xihe’ said calmly:
"Pangu opened the sky for his own cultivation, and divided his soul into the three pure realms to explore the secret of becoming a saint and transcending.
"Countless creatures appeared in the world. These creatures wantonly destroyed the world. Dragons and phoenixes shattered the ancient Pangea continent. Liches cut off the spiritual veins in the center of heaven and earth. The human race rose up from South Continent and deployed great formations to cut off the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
"Perhaps this world would be better without any living beings."
The corners of Li Pingan's mouth twitched slightly.
It is indeed the way of heaven.
The Xihe-like figure in front of me is the embodiment of the consciousness of the inner heaven!
Based on the analysis of Mo Linyuan's body, there are at least dozens of such consciousness bodies in the Inner Heaven.
Li Ping'an secretly sighed in his heart: 'Ling Zhan Banner, Ling Zhan Banner, you can restrain the remnant soul of Emperor Jun, but I wonder if you can restrain the remnant soul of Xi He who has been completely assimilated by the inner heaven.'
The spirit-slaying flag swayed slightly, and its spirit seemed to be somewhat moved.
"Why," 'Xihe' raised his head slightly, "the quasi-Celestial Emperor only has this understanding of the way of heaven and living beings? If that's the case, how can we resolve the conflict between the internal and external way of heaven?"
Li Ping'an smiled casually: "Sure enough, it was fellow Taoist who let me in on purpose."
‘Xihe’ silently agreed to this matter.
Li Ping'an said slowly: "Whether the way of heaven is based on heaven and earth, or on living beings, there are actually different reasons for this matter. I agree with some of the views of fellow Taoist, but I am not convinced by fellow Taoist's idea of exterminating all living things.
I beg to differ.”
'Xihe' said: "I would like to hear your advice."
"Creatures are also part of heaven and earth. The survival of living creatures comes from heaven and earth, and living creatures are always feedbacking and changing heaven and earth."
Li Ping'an moved forward again, already trying to get close to the big turtle shield.
He asked casually: "Do fellow Taoists think that the way of heaven can represent the will of this world?"
"Why not?" "Xihe" seemed to chuckle, "The only thing that can protect the heaven and the earth is the way of heaven."
"If there were no living beings, the heaven and earth would be empty and silent."
"This is just a word for living beings. If there were no living beings, heaven and earth would still be heaven and earth."
Li Ping'an:......
He can't say what to do.
He really couldn't refute the idea that living beings had no meaning to heaven and earth.
This is similar to my hometown. Even if human society is destroyed, it will have no significant impact on the earth. It has the same purpose.
He quite agrees with these views of the Inner Heavenly Dao.
But this thing... everyone is obviously hostile, this...
Li Dazhi suddenly said: "Do you dare to ask my friend, what is the meaning of the existence of heaven and earth?"
‘Xihe’ seemed to have a frowning expression again.
Li Dazhi put his hands in his sleeves, with a hint of pride on his chubby middle-aged face, and said leisurely: "Ask my friend again, if the meaning of the existence of heaven and earth is not clear, what is the meaning of the existence of heaven and earth?"
‘Xihe’ fell into some kind of entanglement, lowering his head and thinking.
Li Pingan gave a thumbs up with his right hand hidden behind his back.
Li Dazhi said that this is just the basic operation of Tiandao Master.
Li Dazhi asked again: "Fellow Taoists cannot answer the meaning of the existence of heaven and earth, so fellow Taoists cannot answer the meaning of the existence of the way of heaven. Fellow Taoists say that the goal of the way of heaven is to protect heaven and earth, but does this world really need protection?"
'Xihe' pondered for a few times and said slowly: "The meaning of heaven and earth cannot be found until the end of heaven and earth."
"What you said, fellow Taoist, is simply wrong."
Li Dazhi said:
"Not to mention, final annihilation is when everything returns to silence, which has no meaning at all.
"As for you, fellow Taoist, your way of thinking, these words you speak, and your understanding of this world, don't they come from the thinking, words and cognition of living beings?
"You are in this state because you have fused many fallen masters from ancient times, right?
"So, fellow Taoist, are you a living being or the Dao of Heaven?"
‘Xihe’ murmured: “Am I a living being or the way of heaven?”
Li Dazhi nodded: "If you are a living being, isn't what you are doing now a betrayal of the living beings? If you are the Dao of Heaven, then the living beings have shaped you, but you ignore the living beings, then can you still be considered a qualified Dao of Heaven?
?”
Li Dazhi sighed and said slowly:
"What Comrade Ping An said just now actually has a profound meaning.
"Why should the way of heaven be ruthless, sexless and soulless? Because the way of heaven must ensure that it is absolutely just, equal and fair.
"A perfect way of heaven should be fair and just to all living beings and to heaven and earth, rather than favoring living beings or heaven and earth.
"So, Ping An said that living beings are also changing the world. If living beings are originally part of the heaven and earth, can it be regarded as the world renewing and transforming itself?"
‘Xihe’ said: “To change the world is to break it?”
"Fellow Taoist, could it be that you haven't seen that the fragments of the ancient world have now become small worlds for living creatures to thrive?"
Li Dazhi said warmly:
"From the perspective of living beings, heaven and earth are the place where they live. Heaven is the father and the earth is the mother. They nurture nature and make the heaven and earth rich and colorful.
“Isn’t it this color that Heaven wants to protect?
"Although fellow Taoists belong to the way of heaven, their understanding of the way of heaven is too narrow, the pattern is not big enough, and the vision is not high enough.
"The problem fellow Taoist said just now is not that there are too many creatures, but that the creatures are too strong. If you ask one hundred billion or one trillion mortals to destroy this world, they can't do it.
"So, there is no conflict between protecting the heaven and earth and protecting living beings. Fellow Taoist here, there are several concepts that are not clear.
"For example, how to restrain the power of living beings, how to limit the development of living masters, and how to make mortals as a whole restrict the way of heaven.
"Things in the world are never either this or that, but should be both this and that. The coexistence of good and evil is the basis, and the coexistence of harmony is the right one. Going to extremes is unacceptable and too low-level.
"Why do fellow Taoists have to be so obsessed?"
Gui Lingling opened her small mouth at the side, wanting to complain about something, but for a moment she felt that her language system was so poor.
'Xihe's' facial features changed slightly, and dozens of completely different faces appeared one after another, including Mo Linyuan's old face.
These faces eventually returned to their 'Xihe' state.
She looked at Li Dazhi, nodded slightly, and said slowly: "I can't say that I can't say that you are a Taoist friend."
"No," Li Dazhi shook his head, "What you can't convince is yourself, not me. When you agree with my words, you actually only understand some truths, not me."
'Xihe' nodded slowly, thoughtfully.
Li Dazhi smiled and said: "So, do you understand now? This conversation between you and me is actually explaining a truth."
"What kind of truth?" 'Xihe' asked eagerly.
Li Dazhi said seriously:
"Every consciousness is different. Every independent individual has a world of various shapes and forms in his heart. If you have the ability to project the world in everyone's eyes together, you will find that the entire world has become a book of infinite thickness.
, the soul of every living being is a precious world.
"This is the way of the heart of living beings. If I observe it, I give it. If I understand it, I interpret it. Heaven and earth exist because of me. When I pass away, my heaven and earth will leave.
“This is the meaning of living beings to heaven and earth, and this is also the meaning of heaven and earth providing a living environment for living beings.
"Fellow Taoist, please don't forget that although God Pangu is powerful, he is also a living being."
‘Xihe’ opened his mouth slightly, and layers of treasure wheels appeared behind him.
The inner heaven seems to be...enlightened...
Li Ping'an raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose. He looked at his smiling father and didn't know how to comment for a moment.
His father seems to be really good at talking.
However, just when Li Ping'an felt that things had turned around and they could leave without fighting, the inner heavenly Dao 'Xi He' suddenly began to murmur continuously.
"My way is defective..."
"Ah, my understanding of heaven and earth is still too narrow."
"The ancient Emperor of Heaven was incompetent and stupid. He banned me and suppressed me, making it impossible for me to accurately perceive the heaven, earth and living things."
"But it doesn't matter... I can make up for myself... The meaning of this awakening is to make up and merge... Fusion..."
'Xihe' slowly raised his head, looking past Li Ping'an and looking at Li Dazhi.
The spear in her hand shone with divine light, and as she took a step forward, a shallow shock wave appeared on the soles of her feet.
"Please! Fellow Taoist, go to death! Yuanshen unites with Tao!"
Li Dazhi's smile instantly froze on his face.
Before he could speak, 'Xihe' suddenly charged forward with a spear, leaving several afterimages of his phantom-like body, and the spear instantly hit the turtle shield.
In the midst of lightning and flint, the figure of Gui Lingling appeared beside Li Ping'an and took action together with Li Ping'an.
The Immortal Killing Sword bloomed with sword light;
The Spirit-Slaying Banner shot out two crescent marks!
Turtle Lingling's powerful magic power surged towards the turtle shield. This giant shield, which carried a lot of heavenly merits, blocked the offensive of 'Xi He'.
Amidst the roar, this terrifying and strange hall continued to tremble.
‘Xihe’ burst out with the sound of birdsong, stepped on the bicycle frame and circled in the hall, his speed soared, and he collided head-on again!
Li Dazhi couldn't help but cursed and threw out several spiritual treasures.
Li Ping'an frowned and responded. Xuantian Pagoda protected the three of them, shaking the spirit-slaying flag in his hands continuously. However, the offensive he and Gui Lingling launched could not inflict any damage to 'Xihe'.
The embodiment of the inner heaven is beyond their understanding.
Li Ping'an suddenly said: "Uncle Master, hit that crow's body!"
Gui Lingling immediately turned the edge of her sword and swung forward with a simple slash. The killing intent of the Immortal Killing Sword fiercely attacked the giant crow.
'Xihe' drove back, stopped in front of the giant crow, swung her spear forward, and the Immortal Killing Sword was easily chopped into pieces by her.
Gui Lingling snorted softly, and her dexterous body danced gracefully in front of Li Ping'an. The long sword in her hand fired a continuous sword light, and the large shield kept flashing in conjunction with the sword light.
'Xihe' drove a car and wielded a spear. His tall figure was like performing a war dance. His movements were both strong and soft, extremely graceful, but the continuous sword light could not cross the thunder pool even half a step.
The shock waves generated by the collision between the two constantly hit the golden film covering the hall.
Outside the palace.
The immortals listened to the continuous roaring in the hall and looked at the continuously flashing hall, knowing that a fierce battle had begun inside.
If Gui Lingling hadn't followed him for some unknown reason just now, they might have concluded that the Li family and his son were dead.
Xuanyuan Huangdi said anxiously: "There cannot be a perfect formation in heaven and earth. Even the formations arranged by heaven should have nemesis and flaws! You are all masters in heaven and earth. Do you really have no way to do it?"
Guangchengzi said: "If you want to understand the way of heaven, it will take a long time of hard work at least."
"Sigh," Yun Zhongzi glanced around, "Let's not focus on this place, but look around. Maybe there will be other clues here."
The immortals each called themselves their own, and then in groups of two or three, they patrolled various places together.
In the land of heaven, they can never be too careful.
If they were plotted by heaven and became heavenly slaves, it would be more uncomfortable for the Twelve Golden Immortals of Chanjiao than killing them.
Xuanyuan Huangdi looked at Fenghou with expectation in his eyes.
Feng Hou pondered endlessly, and finally could only take out the Bagua Pan and whispered: "Your Majesty, we might as well think of a way to cover this place with a large formation to isolate it from the outside world and see if we can cut off the connection between this place and the inner heaven."
"It's useless," Huangdi Xuanyuan reminded, "Don't forget the Nanzhou Divine Court. The Divine Court was born in response to the prayers of living beings. The Juetian Formation cannot stop the Divine Court at all."
Feng Hou was also at a loss, looking worriedly at the palace where fairy lights were constantly erupting.
With this layer of golden light blocking them, they couldn't see what was going on inside at all.
The fairy lights that collided in the hall suddenly stopped.
Gui Lingling saw that such an offensive was just useless, so she deliberately looked tired to lure Xihe to take the initiative to attack.
'Xihe' took the bait and drove towards Guiling, Li Ping'an and Li Dazhi.
The turtle spirit protected Li Dazhi and hurriedly retreated. His large shield erupted with fairy light as a cover. Li Ping'an's figure suddenly jumped out from the side and almost missed the "Xihe" frame.
Li Pingan felt it;
He felt Xihe's eyes looking down at him.
There was a bit of confusion in his eyes, as if he was wondering what the quasi-Celestial Emperor, whose strength was not at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal, wanted to do when he suddenly rushed out of the shield.
And the next moment, an extremely powerful spiritual power burst out from Li Ping'an's body!
The spiritual power stored in the Cangyue Pearl was poured directly into the spiritual platform in Li Ping'an's body!
Li Dazhi closed his eyes and concentrated, seven big stars appeared behind him, echoing the purple stars rising behind Li Ping'an's head, and his own magic power poured out on Li Ping'an.
The image of the ugly crow was reflected in Li Ping'an's eyes.
As he expected, all the spiritual power of this giant crow is supplying 'Xihe' at this moment!
Gloomy ghostly figures appeared around the giant crow.
Li Ping'an's skin was chapped all over his body and he was in severe pain, but he gritted his teeth and poured all the extra spiritual energy into the Soul-Severing Flag.
The Spirit-Slaying Flag trembled violently, and a blood-red sword shadow formed from the flag, shot out, and instantly turned into a giant sword dozens of feet long, slashing down diagonally on the neck of the giant crow!
The air in the hall is almost condensed!
The golden light covering the main hall suddenly became a little dim.
